I'm getting the Fair Isle twitch again. The words Alice Starmore have drifted back into my consciousness, as happens. If you'd like to read what happened the last time I got this jones, it's basically a 13-episode binge read:

Season 2 (like the weird season of Friday Night Lights): 6, 7, 8, 9.

Love,
Ann
